This smart surge-protecting USB power strip just fell below $20 at Amazon
Many of the devices we plug in these days are powered via USB, and all these old power strips with zero USB ports on them are starting to feel a bit outdated. With LeFun's Smart Surge Protector USB Power Strip, you can plug your USB charging cables directly into the power strip without needing a bulky USB wall charging adapter. However, its USB ports are just one of the features it has that your current power strips are missing.
You can also control this smart device using an app on your phone, and thanks to a sale at Amazon, you can get started with one for just $19.49 today. You'll just need to clip the coupon on its product page and then enter promo code I4DN2G5T during checkout. That'll save you more than $10 off its regular price there.
This smart surge protector is equipped with four AC outlets and four USB charging ports, as well as a six-foot extendable power cord for a range of placement options. Using the free Smart Life app on your iOS or Android device, you can control the AC outlets individually or as a group, or schedule them to turn on and off automatically as needed. Unfortunately, the USB ports do not offer smart functionality.
If you own a device featuring Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant, such as the Amazon Echo Dot, you can even begin voice controlling this power strip and its individual outlets. Meanwhile, its built-in resettable circuit breaker ensures your devices remain safe from overloads and short-circuiting by shutting off automatically when one is detected. It was created with fireproof materials and as such also offers protection from overheating. There's a button on the power strip as well which allows you to turn on or off power to your connected devices manually.
